Global Horror: With My Netherworld Trillions, Game On!

Chapter 14: Drive Out the Wolves, Swallow the Tigers! The Cook Makes a Move!

Lin Yu had planned to use the Nine Nether Spirit Cleansing Wine to befriend the powerful ghost. It was premeditated.

After all, three bottles were enough to reach his limit, but the system had given him ten bottles!

Clearly, the extra bottles were meant for gifting and spending.

This matched perfectly with the name of the Strongest Divine Wealth System!

After all, if you have a system of divine wealth, you’re bound to spend extravagantly!

And fortunately, the cook turned out to be a wine lover!

So Lin Yu naturally wanted to try using the Nine Nether Spirit Cleansing Wine to win him over.

Seeing the resentful spirits offer him the necklace of wraith skulls and the mysterious bronze mirror, Lin Yu had realized that the “rules” ghosts follow might be more than just “conditions for killing.”

If you have something they want, even a ghost might become your “friend”!

Even though this cook ghost had entered carrying two human heads, Lin Yu wasn’t afraid!

A ghost wasn’t a natural disaster. It’s a being driven by desires and obsessions!

He poured the rest of the Nine Nether Spirit Cleansing Wine into the cook’s bowl, “Here, brother, you drank too fast last time. Have some more!”

The remaining wine filled just half the bowl before running out, and the cook showed a look of regret, lifting his bowl.

Unlike before, when he downed it in one gulp, this time the cook savored it, taking small sips.

The more he drank, the more he realized this wine was truly a rare treasure, far surpassing anything he had tasted before.

“This really is exceptional!”

Seeing his reaction, Lin Yu knew he had taken the bait, and slowly pulled out another bottle of… Nine Nether Spirit Cleansing Wine from his chest.

The cook’s eyes lit up instantly at the sight of the porcelain bottle.

“You have more of this fine wine?”

Lin Yu smiled calmly, simply shaking the bottle in his hand. “How about I fill you up again, brother?”

Hearing this, the cook eagerly nodded, “Then… I’ll gladly accept, little brother!”

Even though this cook was feared by both Accountant Li and Madam Zhang, he now accepted Lin Yu’s “brotherly” term and even warmly called him “little brother”!

Lin Yu popped open the bottle and filled the cook’s bowl with wine, then sighed lightly.

“Sigh… such a shame!”

Hearing Lin Yu’s lament, the cook — who wasn’t the sharpest — immediately looked at him with curiosity, as Lin Yu had hoped.

“Little brother, why the regret when you have such fine wine?”

“Brother, drinking this Nine Nether Spirit Cleansing Wine alone, you can’t fully appreciate its taste. If only there were some side dishes…”

The cook smiled at this, “Little brother, that’s not an issue at all!

“Don’t forget, I’m a cook! Setting up a little extra is easy for me!”

Lin Yu nodded slightly.

“I know your cooking is great, but ‘human’ as an ingredient is just too low-tier to showcase your full skills!”

Hearing this, the cook looked intrigued.

“Little brother, blood-based food is already quite a rare and nourishing ingredient. Is there really anything better?”

“Of course,” Lin Yu replied earnestly. “Human Yin energy is nothing compared to that of a ghost!

“Cooking with ghost ingredients. How perfect would that be?”

“Cooking with ghost ingredients… cooking with ghosts…”

The cook repeated Lin Yu’s words twice, then his face lit up with wild joy!

“Indeed, that would be splendid! Little brother… I feel like we were destined to meet!”

With that, he eagerly looked toward Accountant Li and Madam Zhang, who both immediately turned pale with shock.

“What are you planning… I haven’t wronged you… We all work here at the Yellow Springs Inn! Don’t break the rules!”

Madam Zhang stood up, shouting angrily.

Hearing her words, Lin Yu understood something.

As expected, there were restrictions on ghosts harming each other…

At least within the confines of the horror game, this seemed to be the case!

Accountant Li looked at Madam Zhang and then at the eager cook, giving a cold chuckle.

“No wronging him? Breaking the rules? Not necessarily… Madam Zhang!

“It was you, Madam Zhang, who struck out first… During dinner time, you attacked another employee first!”

Accountant Li’s words made Madam Zhang look at him in disbelief.

A sinister grin was already spreading across his face!

Although the cook ghost worked at the Yellow Springs Inn, he was different from the lesser ghosts who grew stronger only after starting at the inn.

He had been brought from deeper realms by the inn’s mistress, and breaking the rules might not affect him in the same way!

So… he didn’t dare to risk it!

And even ghosts know a simple rule…

when you encounter a bear in the wild with others, you don’t have to outrun the bear. You just have to outrun the rest.

What’s more, he and Madam Zhang had already been at odds!

“Li!” Madam Zhang yelled his name with resentment, realizing his intentions, drawing her broom in a last-ditch effort to fight Accountant Li to the death.

But… it was already too late!

Whoosh!

A slashing sound filled the air!

In the next instant, a bloodstained, rusted cleaver flew out, pierced her shoulder, and pinned her to the ground!
